WUSB54G firmware

2009-05-30 Thread Jim

FC10/Kde

I'm trying to setup a Linksys WUSB54G and I get this error message from 
DMESG.


usb 2-2: firmware: requesting l3886usb

usb 2-2: (p54usb) cannot find firmware (isl3886usb)

usb 2-2: firmware: requesting isl3890usb

p54usb: probe of 2-2:1.0 failed with error -2
usbcore: registered new interface driver p54usb


I have googled isl3886USB and can't find the firmware, does anyone know 
where this firmware

is.

I am pretty sure I used one of those on F8, and it worked out of the box.

Anyway, take a look at

According to linuxwireless.org if your device is the same as listed
below, you should be loading a prism 54 driver.

p54usb Linksys WUSB54G 0x5041 0x2234

run a lsusb and match up the hex values for vendor, product

I should have told you that I'm trying install on a X86_64 box.

I did install the 2.13.24.0.lm86(2).arm and it is in /lib/firmware, it 
would not install in

/lib64/firmware.

I think I need to install the ndiswrapper for i386, I have 
ndiswrapper.X86_64 installed.


The ndiswrapper.i386 doesn't show up in FC10 X86_64 fedora repo how do I 
change the repo's to read the i386 files ?

I think you missed a crucial step. Although right now I am using a 
D-Link USB wifi receiver, I did try a Linksys for a few days after I had 
set it up for the D-Link, and it worked right out of the box. So the 
procedure should be the same. Here is how I did it for the D-Link.


1. I put the firmware in /lib/firmware/
2. Renamed it to 'isl3890usb'
2. in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/ ran "make menuconfig" as root, 
enabled the relevant kernel module. then did a "modprobe ". Here 
 is p54.


I believe you missed the renaming the firmware part.

A correction there, on scrolling down I see your device is listed, but
has a different name for the firmware. So the revised steps should be,

download the firmware for 'miniPCI / PCMCIA' and rename it to 'isl3886'

and *not* isl3890usb. Sorry for the mix-up mate.

Only if the firmware is 64-bit firmware.  Is your USB device 64-bit?
Firmware runs on your device , not on your host CPU.

This is my output from dmesg. Its rather odd that in your case the
kernel is looking for two different firmwares for the same device.

As you can see from this device list, your adapter is not there.
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54/devices

However filtering the complete device list for Linksys gives me a list
where it is included.
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Devices/USB?dbw.devices.submit=filter&dbw.devices.filter0=[all]&dbw.devices.filter1=Linksys&dbw.devices.filter3=[all]&dbw.devices.filter4=[all]

Are you sure you have the correct model *name* *and* *revision* for the adapter?

If you have that correct then the next step would be to check the
settings in menuconfig. This is what you should see when you search
for prism after running make menuconfig.

  │ Symbol: PRISM54 [=m]
  │ Prompt: Intersil Prism GT/Duette/Indigo PCI/Cardbus
  │   Defined at drivers/net/wireless/Kconfig:496
  │   Depends on: NETDEVICES && !S390 && PCI && EXPERIMENTAL && WLAN_80211
  │   Location:
  │ -> Device Drivers
  │   -> Network device support (NETDEVICES [=y])
  │ -> Wireless LAN
  │   -> Wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11) (WLAN_80211 [=y])
  │   Selects: WIRELESS_EXT && FW_LOADER

After that is verified, try 'modprobe prism54'. I was quoting from
memory in my last email and had erroneously said p54. If all of this
doesn't work, I am out of ideas. I am very new to linux myself. :P

I am pretty sure I used one of those on F8, and it worked out of the
box.

Anyway, take a look at

I should have told you that I'm trying install on a X86_64 box.

I did install the 2.13.24.0.lm86(2).arm and it is in /lib/firmware, it
would not install in
/lib64/firmware.

I think I need to install the ndiswrapper for i386, I have
ndiswrapper.X86_64 installed.

The ndiswrapper.i386 doesn't show up in FC10 X86_64 fedora repo how do I
change the repo's to read the i386 files ?

 

I think you missed a crucial step. Although right now I am using a D-Link
USB wifi receiver, I did try a Linksys for a few days after I had set it up
for the D-Link, and it worked right out of the box. So the procedure should
be the same. Here is how I did it for the D-Link.

1. I put the firmware in /lib/firmware/
2. Renamed it to 'isl3890usb'
2. in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/ ran "make menuconfig" as root,
enabled the relevant kernel module. then did a "modprobe". Here
  is p54.

I believe you missed the renaming the firmware part.

HTH

PS: I am on x86_64 too
$uname -r
2.6.27.24-170.2.68.fc10.x86_64

   

I did as you suggested, but I'm still having problems.
Do you know what this means?

p54usb: probe of 2-2:1.0 failed with error -110



Here is my dmesg and lsmod


Dmesg

# dmesg|grep prism

This is my output from dmesg. Its rather odd that in your case the
kernel is looking for two different firmwares for the same device.

   

Modules that are loading

p54usb 14208  0
p54common  20452  1 p54usb
mac80211  194224  2 p54usb,p54common

 

As you can see from this device list, your adapter is not there.
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54/devices

However filtering the complete device list for Linksys gives me a list
where it is included.
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Devices/USB?dbw.devices.submit=filter&dbw.devices.filter0=[all]&dbw.devices.filter1=Linksys&dbw.devices.filter3=[all]&dbw.devices.filter4=[all]

Are you sure you have the correct model *name* *and* *revision* for the adapter?

If you have that correct then the next step would be to check the
settings in menuconfig. This is what you should see when you search
for prism after running make menuconfig.

   │ Prompt: Intersil Prism GT/Duette/Indigo PCI/Cardbus

After that is verified, try 'modprobe prism54'. I was quoting from
memory in my last email and had erroneously said p54. If all of this
doesn't work, I am out of ideas. I am very new to linux myself. :P

You maybe right about my device.

Mine identifies as WUSB54GC on the label, and works with FC{9,10,11} without 
doing anything special. Now, there are some kernel firmware packages, I would 
assume you have them installed, although I don't remember seeing anything about 
it in dmesg.


If you are still stuck I'll fire up FC10 and grab the dmesg, my FC11 is a bit 
hacked at the moment.

A correction there, on scrolling down I see your device is listed, but
has a different name for the firmware. So the revised steps should be,

download the firmware for 'miniPCI / PCMCIA' and rename it to 'isl3886'

and *not* isl3890usb. Sorry for the mix-up mate.

GL

   

But the device I have is a  WUSB54G is a USB device.
The Firmware I downloaded is for the kernel I have and the firmware is 
the isl3886usb

but another person told me to rename it to /lib/firmware/isl3890usb
Am I missing something here ?

Something that puzzles me is, I have X86_64 box here, shouldn't  this 
firmware be located in /lib64/firmware ?



Firmware has nothing to do with the OS or mode of the CPU, it runs in the 
device. /lib/firmware does it.

Just copy and rename it to the appropriate name for your USB adapter.

I think the problem in your case is, it is unclear what the appropriate 
name for your adapter is. You could try looking into some of the user 
forum archives in fedora forum. Also try finding out what chip your 
adapter uses, then it would be easier to figure out which firmware 
tarball to download and what to rename it to.

Jim, mine uses something called rt73.bin and I have no idea how it got in 
/lib/firmware... But that's what it appears to use.

I just booted fc10 and fc11 on my laptop, and both use the rt73.bin firmware 
which must come with some package, because I didn't install it in fc11, I use 
another driver there. If that driver is present in /lib/firmware, your wireless 
should indeed "just work" as promised.

rt73 is a Ralink firmware, it has nothing to do with the OP's Prism WLAN.
It comes from the rt73usb-firmware package.

According to linuxwireless.org if your device is the same as listed
below, you should be loading a prism 54 driver.

p54usb Linksys WUSB54G 0x5041 0x2234

run a lsusb and match up the hex values for vendor, product


   

It is loading and running the p54usb driver, but it also looking for the
2.13.24.0.lm86(2).arm firmware.
 

Post o/p of ls -l  /lib/firmware to the group.

rt73 is a Ralink firmware, it has nothing to do with the OP's Prism WLAN.
It comes from the rt73usb-firmware package.

Let me state the facts and you can tell me why they don't mean the obvious... 
when I plug in the WUSH54G device, the disk blinks, the device blinks, and a 
wireless connection is made. On looking at the files in /lib/firmware I see that 
the most recently accessed file is rt73.bin. And that if I boot without plugging 
in the WUSH54G device that firmware is not accessed.


I didn't pull that filename out of the sir, I looked to see what firmware was 
accessed. Are you saying that the access when the device is used is just a 
coincidence?

Does /var/log/messages say anything interesting?  On my laptop's
embedded radio I see kernel-tagged syslog messages indicating which
firmware file is getting loaded.  If that were present it would put an
end to any doubt.

I'm saying that your device isn't the same as the OP's, it's a completely
different chipset. Even if the same product name is written on it,
different "hardware revisions" can be completely different. Blame the
manufacturers for that.

Jim,

I 'm just shooting in the dark here, but something worth a try would
be to put both 'isl3886usb' and 'isl3890usb' in /lib/firmware. After
all in the messages it says the kernel is asking for both the
firmwares. Just a thought.

I did give both firmware names as

The firmware I downloaded was for the 2.6.29 kernel, which is what I.m using.

The output of Dmesg is attached.

Looks like that is the case. In that case you can try one of the 
alternate options to get the firmware. Were you able to find out which 
chip your adapter uses as I had suggested earlier? If you have that 
info, you can try looking for it in here


http://daemonizer.de/prism54/prism54-fw/

The other option left for you would be to extract the firmware from the 
windows binary that came with the product. This page from the Prism54 
Project page might be of help.

What Linux command would read chip ID on a USB device.
I've tried all the lsub options and nothing reads chipset.

I'm not sure that can be done. The most feasible way is to consult the
manufacturers website for technical specifications. If the
manufacturers were thorough enough, you might even get this info from
the manuals that came with the adapter (although very unlikely). If
all else fails an intense google search should give you some hints.
Things like part no. or revision of the particular model might be
helpful for the search.

good luck
